Maybe you've never heard of the Tamarros before, maybe you have. They are mischievous creatures, half legend and half popular imagination, who live in their own peculiar world and are very difficult to see. The Tamarros protect the nature and the forests of Andorra and they only come out of their world when we need them.
Andy, one of them, is entrusted with the protection of the natural environment of Andorra la Vella. He has a magic portal, hidden in the very forests he protects.
His sworn enemy is Dirt, an evil troll who does everything in her power to damage and destroy Andorra la vella’s precious mountains, lakes and forests.
Fortunately, Andy is here to help! And so are the Tamarros of the six other parishes!
But every now and again, they need our help. To make sure that the portals they use to access our forests work, we need some children to place a little round stone by them. If there are no stones, the portals won't open and the Tamarros won't be able to get into our world to help us.
If you’d like to give us a hand, finding the portals is really easy because each one is shaped like a Tamarro. If you do find them, you’ll get a reward too!
You'll find all the information you need to find the Tamarros at the tourist information offices in Andorra.
Andy’s Forest is a new, short, and easy route for the family based on the Tamarro character and featuring a story about his way of life and the work he does in the woods.
The Andy’s forest route starts at the figure of the Tamarro, where a “gate to the forest” has been installed. The circular route is 1.6 kilometers long and has an elevation gain of 100 meters. It is an easy route that can be covered in around 1 hour and 30 minutes, during which Andy’s story is told and his work in the forest is explained.
This route also comes with a storybook, which can be collected from the Andorra la Vella Tourist Office.
If your kids like sport, take them to shoot some hoops on Plaça del Poble, or to 360º Extrem, Andorra’s indoor freestyle sports centre.
The littlest ones will love the Parc Central. As well as a children’s park, it has a vast green area where they can play, do sports or simply wander around and discover the nature around them! If anyone gets peckish, there is a restaurant inside the park.
Just three kilometres from Andorra la Vella, you will find one of the country’s most magical spots: the Mirador de la Comella. From this viewpoint, all the family can enjoy the beauty and biodiversity of the surrounding area and see some of Andorra’s most incredible peaks. What’s more, it has a picnic area and plenty of space to play, making it ideal for children!
